Fords Open Developer Program Brings Smartphone Apps to Your Car
LAS VEGAS -- Ford unveiled its new Ford Developer Program at CES 2013 on Monday.
The program will give app developers access to its SYNC system alongside its AppLink API.
For the last three years, Ford has allowed developers to access various portions of its API, and has offered a host of AppLink apps. But the barrier to entry to gain access to the APIs was still fairly high. On Monday, Ford changed that by opening its Ford Developer Program to developers at large.
This will give developers of all sizes the ability to add commands that enable hands-free voice control over their smartphone. It will also let developers access in-car controls and the display from within the app.
